Synopsis
In the dead of night, a body donated for organ transplants mysteriously disintegrates into ashes. Soon after, five recipients, given a heart, corneas, lungs, liver, and kidneys, begin to develop supernatural powers. A teenage girl gains immense strength, a hipster manipulates electromagnetic waves, a novelist summons powerful gusts, a factory manager can heal others, and a woman discovers a strange, still-unidentified ability. Together, they form a reluctant but heroic team known as “HI-FIVE.” But they aren’t the only ones transformed. A cult leader who received the donor’s pancreas gains the terrifying power to drain life energy and sets his sights on stealing the abilities of HI-FIVE to achieve godlike domination.
Our Review Editorial
When a donated body inexplicably crumbles to ash, five organ recipients awaken to strange new powers, and Kang Hyoung-chul spins that bizarre premise into a buoyant, fantastical superhero romp. A teenager gains brute strength, a hipster bends electromagnetic waves, a novelist conjures wind, a factory manager can heal, and one woman holds a gift no one can yet name. Reluctantly they unite as HI-FIVE, only to find a cult leader, granted the donor's pancreas and a hunger to drain life itself, hunting them for godlike power. The cast, led by Ahn Jae-hong and Lee Jae-in, keeps the energy playful.
The vibe is breezy and inventive, blending action set pieces with broad comedy and a comic-book sense of wonder. It zips along, never lingering too long before the next power or gag arrives. Viewers who enjoy lighthearted Korean genre cinema and origin-story team-ups with a quirky streak will find this an easy, entertaining watch.
